TESTIMONIALS
“The IKD LCEDP has to be one of the best leadership programs I have attended to date. I felt re-energised after the course, and as a result of attending this course, I now have a good sense of the areas I need to focus on to take my career to the next level. The course was challenging, interesting and refreshing. There was a lot of hard work, but I felt very supported by my fellow participants and Jil. Highly recommended for lawyers who are interested in furthering their leadership abilities.”
Maggie Leung : Senior Corporate Counsel & Competition and Consumer Act Compliance Manager – Caltex Australia – LCEDP 2011
“The LCEDP course was time well spent, for both its professional and personal value. The range of topics was good for us novice managers, and having a generous amount of time on each session gave a chance For areas that I was familiar with, I picked up a set of analytical and descriptive tools to give some shape to my thinking. Other areas were complete revelations and opened up a whole new way of seeing the workplace – and watching the very skillful instructors in action was an education in itself! Really enjoyable and worthwhile.”
Michael Coleman : General Counsel, Telstra Wholesale – LCEDP Melbourne 2008
“While our individual experiences and learnings form the LCEDP may vary, we’d all agree it was fantastic. The camaraderie and collegiality LCEDP engenders transcends any particular course group. I’d like to think that any LCSP alumni can ring any other alumni members and the rapport and willingness to help each other would be instant.”
Janice Van Reyk : GC and Company Secretary National Foods (to May 2002) - LCEDP Melbourne 2000

Margaret Harrison : Consumer and Small Business Counsel, ANZ Bank - LCEDP Melbourne 2003
“It is difficult to put my feedback from the course into a few words as I don’t feel I will do the course justice….. My confidence in my ability to lead has significantly improved and I am finding it much easier than expected to put my learnings from the course into practice.”
Justine Rowe : Managing Counsel, Telstra Corporation Ltd - LCEDP Melbourne 2006
“Some valuable insights into one’s leadership style, and the perceptions of others. I have recommended this course to other lawyers wishing to develop in their current role or to “morph” into another.”
Elizabeth Kennedy : Corporate Counsel, The Royal Women’s Hospital - LCEDP Melbourne 2008
